Dept. of Children's Svcs. vs. Jeri Layne

This is a termination of parental rights case involving four small children. The parental rights of the biological father, Carl Edward Layne, were terminated after default judgment was entered against him and such termination has not been appealed. The parental rights of the biological mother, Jeri Fay Layne, were terminated by the Juvenile Court of Grundy County after a hearing based upon statutory grounds of abandonment, failure to substantially comply with the permanency plan and persistent, unremedied conditions. Mrs. Layne timely appealed and we affirm the judgment of the Juvenile Court.
